What gratifying change it is that mani
tests itself in the spirit and tone of the ed
itorial columns OF the Leavenworth Times
no less than in the appearance of its adver-
Using department. Under the regime of
its former policy of ceaseless combative-
ness the Times had the appearance of a
great banquetting hall, SO to speak, swept
and garnished, but with its editor the sole
occupant. Under the change of policy the
redoubtable colonel has plenty of company
many columns of fresh and attractive
home advertisements-and everything
seems to be lovely in the fortress city. In
the language of Father Eskridge. "Behold
how good and bow pleasant thing it is
for brethren to dwell together in unity"

The Pennsylvania Democrats demand in
their resolutions, and that with emphasis,
mind you, ''that the large surplus already
in the treasury shall be used to pay the pub
lie debt, and that the current and unneces-
sary increase going on beyond the needs of
the government shall be Immediately pre-
vented by wise and prudent reduction of
internal taxation and of duties on imports,
in accordance with the foregoing declara-
tons, which evidently means that the in
ternal taxes must give way before the pres
ent system and rates Of import duties are
touched, and then only in such manner
and to such extent as not to jeopardize the
interests and welfare of the laboring peo
pie, which is the Republican position to a
dot. The Democrats of late are manifest
ing a more commendable willingness to
follow good lead than aptness to lead.

In the present complicated state of politi.

In the present complicated state of politi-
cal affairs in New York state neither of the
big parties, as the Globe Democrat calls
them, seem anxious to begin the canvass in
that state early. In speaking of the situa-
ton there the Globe says that
although the two labor parties and the
Prohibitionists have had tickets in the
field from one to three weeks, the Repub-
licans and Democrats will hardly get their
candidates fairly before the people before
the beginning Of October. As there are
state officers of more or less importance to
be chosen. and as the coming election may
be expected to have some moral effect
on the national canvass next year, this
dilatoriness is surprising. However, there
is an excuse for some Gegree of apathy on
the part of the Republicans. Henry
George will make the task of winning In
that state this year and next year easy for
that party.

The opera house at Wichita, seventy-hve
feet high, tumbled to the ground the other
day. The fault is laid to inferior brick.
More likely it was an inferior foundation.
We are told that by digging down several
feet in Wichita they come to water and
slush, and that they get foundations by
putting down heavy timbers.-Troy Chief.
If the editor of the Chief had read the
very full details of the unfortunate occur
renee alluded to as published in the EAGLE
the morning after it took place. and subse-
quently, he could not have come to the
conclusion he seems to have arrived at
from hearsay in reference to the matter of
foundations for buildings in Wichita.
There is not city in this state
or any other state of the size
of Wichita that has more large, tall, heavy
buildings, and there has not been single
instance of accident on account of insecure
foundation.

The Firemen's Ball.

Next Wednesday night the Ami
versary Ball of the Ketchum Fire
Department will take place at Me-
tropolitan Hall. The attendance
should and doubtless will be large,
as the fremen are deserving Of en-
enlargement at the hands Of the
citizens. Everyone that attends
will get value received for the price
of a ticket. The committee of ar
rangements has been indefatigable
it its efforts to provide for the COM
fort and pleasure of all who take
part in the dance. Prof. Delius'
full orchestra has been secured to
furnish music for the occasion and
arrangements made to provide all
with a sumptuous midnight repast
at the Baxter Hotel. Tickets car
be secured from any member of the
department or at the principal
stores

Failed to Convict,

The trial of George W. Lewis at
Elko, Nevada, charged with the
murder Of a miner named PiccolO,
resulted in a disagreement after a
session of eleven days. Lewis was
foreman of the Tripoli mine, at
Highland, and is we'll known on
Wood River. The evidence showed
that Lewis vowed he would kill
Piccolo and walked two miles to
procure revolver, returned to Pic
colo's cabin and fired four shots,
killing his man instantly. Lewis
then went away but returned and
raised the dead mans head and
fired the remaining shot through
Piccolo's brain. Six of the jurors
stood for acquittal, five for murder
in the first and one for murder in
the second degree. The defense
was insanity.

The Postomce Store.

Santa Claus has selected the
Postofiice store as his headquarters
during the coming holiday season,
a fact that children, especially, will
not be slow to find out when the
consignment of Christmas goods is
once displayed. Mr.. Williams has
been fortunate in selecting stock
of goods adapted to the holiday
trade that will surpass anything of
the kind ever before exhibited ia
Ketchum. No cheap, worthless
trumpery that have been kept in
stock for years past. but everything
bright and new, direct from first
hands. Parents who intend to make
glad the hearts of their children
can rely upon securing a suita bic
gift at this we'll known place, while
older heads can be equally as well
pleased with articles more particu-
larly adapted for those of maturer
years. The holiday goods are ex-
pected to arrive next week and all
are invited to visit the place and
make selections early. Articles can
be purchased at any time and left
with Mr.. Williams for delivery on
Christmas eve or any other day.

4 SERIOUS cnAR;e.
Challis Enjoys . Sensation Over the
Arrest Of Eden Dodge.

The usual quietude of the town
of Challis was last week broken
and a genuine sensation INDUCED
in caused by the arrest of Eden
Dodge, prominent resident OF
Custer county, upon a charge OF
committing an outrageous assault
upon Bella, the ten-year-old daugh'
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Klug, residing
near the brewery. The outrage, il
is claimed, was perpetrated in
July last and why such length OF
time has been allowed to elapse be-
fore any charge was preferred does
not appear to be satisfactorily
explained. The little girl, it is
said, tells a straightforward story
concerning the alleged assault up
on her, directly duplicating Mr..
Dodge, who denies all knowledge
of the matter. The father of the
child is the prosecuting witness
and the examination of Dodge
took place on Tuesday last be-
fore Hon. James Burns, Probate
Judge of Custer county. Public
opinion, it is said, is divided con-
corning the truth Of the henious
charge, some believing it is black
mailing scheme, others that the lit
tie girl has recited the truth.
Should the fact be established that
Dodge was actually guilty of the
atrocious crime charged to him he
is deserving of far greater punish
ment than the law provides in such
cases. The father Of the girl fol-
lows the vocation of a laborer and
there does not appear to be any
reason why he should thus give to
his daughter an unenviably public
ity without some grounds to sub
stantiate the gravity of the charge
he has made against Mr.. Dodge.

"Don't you know" said bright
young lady to the Telegram, "that
about every fifth man that rides in
street car is beast?"
And without waiting for a re-
spouse she continued:
well. / assure you it is true.
There is a class of brutes-I can't
call them men-who crowd into a
full car and make themselves as OBJ.
noxious as they possibly can. No
matter how much room there is in
the ailse for them to stand in, they
manage to obtrude themselves by
crowding right up against a lady,
and every time any one passes them
they make it an occasion tO-I'm
almost ashamed to say it-but ia
rub up against the knees of the
lady. 1t is not accidental, it is in
territorial, and it just makes my
blood boil. DO you know what
do? Well, I'll tell you. l always
have a pin handy. and when one o.
these beasts come rubbing against
me just let him have it 1t works
like q charm, too. He finds room
to move back about a foot mighty
quick. I'm not afraid of being in
suited for it. The brute knows he's
guilty and he knows you know il
and he don't stay in the car very
long" Ladies who have suffered
! insults of this character should try
the pin remedy.-Cincinnati Tele

Not Guilty.

Contrary to previous advices, no
change of venue was gives for the
trial of John Strobe and John
Thurman and the case was tried at
Vale, Oregon, last week, resulting in
the acquittal of both of the defend
ants. The charge against them OF
numbering a sheepherder named
Rich failed to be substantiated and
appears to have been the outcome
of bad feeling between Strobe and
number of sheepmen. A jury
was secured after a great deal OF
difficulty and the trial begun. The
principal witnesses against the de-
PENDANTS were +. =. JUNIOR, Robert
Altman, John Ward and Ira b.
Haynes, all Of whom INDUCED in
some pretty tall swearing regarding
the killing of Rich by Strobe and
Thurman. Mr.. Strobe testified in
his defense and created a very fav-
orable imprisson and told a straight
forward story and denounced the
testimony of Haynes as a lie. His
cross-examination failed to shake
his evidence and the jury in very
short space of time after retiring
found Il verdict of mot guilty" for
both defendants. After the verdict
had been rendered and the defend
ants released from custody, Strobe
invited the whole town to a saloon
and spent nearly 81 900 for drinks,
and then made a public offer OF
$4,000 for the scalp of Ira b.
Haynes, the witness who had testi-
fled against him and Thurman.

The Ball Supper.

The supper to be given on next
Wednesday night to those attend
ing the fire department ball will be
spread at the Baxter hotel dining
room. Mr.. and Mrs. Baxter are
hard at work preparing for the oc-
casion, and from the number of tur-
KEYS, chickens and ducks ordered
and the mince and pumpkin pies to
be made, together with an endless
variety of other substantials and
dainties, it is evident that those
partaking of the supper will get
their moneys worth.

~ AAAHOiu kuICu, Is one VI more
than ordinary importance. The
most reliable information states
that a vein of ore, sixteen inches
wide has been exposed. The ore is
found in lunches and is of a very
high grade. An extra number of
miners have been put to work and
indications are that considerable
working force will be emplo Jed
during the winter.
At the Parker mine, a number of
miners are employed on develop
ment work and while no strike has
yet been made the prospects are
said to be most encouraging.
SILVER DISTRICT.
Reports from Silver district are
of the most encouraging nature.
Matt. Graham is general superin-
tendent for the English company
that purchased group Of mines
there last summer, and has large
number of mem employed in push

MINING NOTES.
The new strike in the Queen of
the Hills mine at BroadfOrd bids
fair to be one Of importance. 1t
was made 100 feet below the sur
face, on the tenth level, and the
vein is two feet in width.
The Black Spar mine, Muldoon
district, has been bonded to ST.
Louis parties for 100000. The
